When Theo got out of jail he came here, Greg a former inmate here, had married the original founder of The Ark’s daughter, years later he is the main man. So Theo is in here, he gets drunk and drugged up, the Management Board tell him to leave. He does not feel inclined to do so. As there are many hard men in the place the Board gets a few, armed with baseball bats to go and convince skinny little Theo he should go. This was a bad plan, Theo is as crazy as he looks.
He grabbed a baseball bat from one of them, asked them if they think he is fucking scared of them. He the breaks the bat over his own head! Hence the big dent. After doing that, blood pouring down his face he climbs into the hard men, one or two go down and the rest run like hell. He chases them. Someone had the presence of mind to call Greg. Greg calms Theo down and says he can stay. Theo and a few others go to hospital for a bit. No wonder the Mexican Horse Thief is left alone in this hard place! Theo decided on day one I was his best friend. Jesus.
Should I be glad or terrified??
